A young Cuban identified on TikTok as @arielito.oficial posted a video in which he firmly responded to women who label him a “princeso” for not messaging them or actively interacting on social media.
In the audiovisual, the content creator expressed his frustration over what he sees as a new form of offense on digital platforms. “Now it turns out that the new way for women to insult someone is by calling him 'princeso,'” he stated.
The Cuban made it clear that he feels no obligation to respond to messages, comments, or follow profiles if he doesn’t want to. “I have no desire to write to anyone, I have no desire to respond to anyone's comment, I have no desire to reply to anyone's message,” he reiterated.
He explained that some women react with criticism when he doesn't respond as they expect. “Then they call me a 'princeso.' The problem is that I don't have to act like all the other men who spend their lives writing 'beautiful,' 'gorgeous,' or filling social media with hearts,” he commented.
The young man defended his stance, asserting that he is neither "given away" nor interested in behaving like other men who, in his opinion, are constantly seeking female attention online. "I'm not just another one of the crowd. I like to choose who I want to be with," he stated.
In the video, she also sent a direct message to those who might feel addressed: "If you get angry with this video, whoever you are, that's your problem."
The clip has generated debate among its followers, with divided opinions. While some support the right to decide how to interact on social media, others question the tone used to refer to women and other men.
The term "princeso" has become popular on social media as an ironic way to refer to men who are supposedly demanding special treatment or do not adhere to certain traditional codes of courtship. However, as this case demonstrates, its use has also sparked controversy.
